Excerpt from Report of the Connecticut State Commission on Compensation for Industrial Accidents
It must be borne in mind also that in this country many of the employes in large industrial establishments are engaged in a class of labor for which the compensation is barely sufficient for their support and that of their families. In such cases it is increasingly difficult to accumulate savings sufficient to provide for their fami lies in case of death or incapacity for labor, either temporary or permanent. Humanity, therefore, would seem to demand that some provision should be made for the results of accidents under such circumstances.
Aside from considerations of humanity, the public has a direct interest in the matter. An accident causing incapacity for labor, or death, is an injury to the public, for through such accident the capacity of the workman to support himself and his family is so far affected that they may become wholly or in part a burden to the public.
